    Anybody that has ever driven at night in the rain in a rural area would, per your judgement, not be able to have a license. People do sometimes drive off the road into fields in those circumstances, but a maintained road suddenly being non-existent is not even on the radar (and it is maintained until this point as there are resident’s driveways shortly before the bridge).

      Bull shit. They are legally expected to drive at a speed where they can safly stop within there visual range.

      If your lights are not showing enough of the road for you to see within your stopping distance ce you are require to slow down. If you cannot drive slow enough to stop. You are required not to drive.

      DRIVING IS NOT A FUCKING RIGHT.

      Sorry caps were a accident. But I’m leaving it.
